Okay, my kid is 5 months and there's no siblings in the house LOL so he's not tattling on anyone However, here's what I want to know. I've read alot of things from you ladies and you say that tattling really bugs you, you punish for it, etc. However, where do you draw the line as to what is "bad tattling" and what is "okay tattling" Let's say big bro totally hauls out and hits your younger child and younger child tells you. Is he tattling? Or do you consider tattling when its whiny and chances are, the tattling kid is just as guilty? What's your experience and care to share any words of wisdom for a new MOmmy who was an only child I never had siblings or even cousins to tattle on
